  • Vincent Zabus was born on May 8, 1971, and currently lives in Namur, Belgium. Actor and artistic director of the Compagnie des Bonimenteurs, he is a serious fan of comic books. He wrote two shorts strips for Spirou, then two series for children published by Dupuis: Le monde selon François (The World According to François) with Renaud Collin and Agathe Saugrenu (Unexpected Agatha) with Valérie Vernay. His most recent books are Les petites gens (Little People, Lombard, 2012) and Les Chroniques d'un maladroit sentimental (Chronicle of a Sentimental Klutz, Vents d’Ouest, January, 2013).

    Frank Meynet, a.k.a. Hippolyte, was born in 1976. Having started out working for the press, and then for publishers, he is best-known for having taken on the huge task of producing a comic-book version of The Master of Ballantrae, Robert Louis Stevenson’s masterpiece (Denoël Graphic). In 2004, he won the Best Album of the Year Award at the Brussels Book Fair for his comic-book adaptation of Dracula, by Bram Stoker (Glenat). A peerless, and tirelessly inventive graphic designer, he switches happily from scratchboards to water color. He lives on Reunion Island.
